To facilitate use of our dataset in any radiative model,

we provide the community with scripts

(see [this associated Github repository](https://github.com/MetOffice/CMIP7_volcanic_aerosol_forcing/tree/main))
93+
that can be used to interpolate the files we provide on ESGF on any list of wavelength inputted by the user.
94+
These include a simple method to linearly interpolate to waveband midpoints
95+
and a weighted averaging method that is more computationally expensive
96+
but provides more representative averages, particularly for radiation schemes with broad wavebands.
97+
We therefore recommend modelling groups use the latter method where possible.
